“The app will direct MSEs to a data-driven ‘one-stop shop,’ which will house relevant resources, programs and digital tools from different support organizations to help founders build and grow their businesses,” the companies said in a news release Monday (May 9). “Businesses can upload their details and to generate a digital business action plan, which they can use to track progress on their phone.”
